No I didnt, it was up to the Greyhound fraternity to have out their best case forward! It is a bit ironic that Edward Rennell went from CEO of harness to the Greyhounds CEO. Rennell wanted the whip banned on harness horses which wont happen and the greyhound racing is banned and greyhound breed going to become extinct while he is the CEO! -

Lyle Hewitson and James Orman have been two of the surprise packages of the season and the pair have some excellent chances to keep their respective runs going at Sha Tin on Sunday. Hewitson sits on 15 winners for the season and he will rely on Akashvani to add another win to his tally when he runs in the fiercely competitive Class Three Stanley Gap Handicap (1,400m). In a race that will shape the Classic Mile conversation, he takes on the the likes of Helene Supafeeling and Circuit Grand Slam...View the full article -

A long-range plan came to fruition for trainer Matthew Dale at Wyong on Saturday with No Drama’s (NZ) (Ghibellines) victory in the A$160,000 Central Coast Community News Benchmark 78 Handicap (1200m). It was the seventh win of a 26-start career for the Ghibellines gelding, who has also picked up four minor placings and has earned A$302,092 in stakes. Four of those successes have come from just six attempts over the 1200m distance of Saturday’s race. Dale took over the training of No Drama from Lindsey Smith in 2024, and he has now guided the horse to four wins and two placings from 13 starts. The Goulburn trainer has taken note of No Drama’s affinity for a certain type of racecourse, which led him to identify the Wyong fixture as an ideal chance to shoot for a Saturday prize. “We found this race on a Saturday because for such a big horse, he likes tight turning tracks,” Dale said. “He has won a couple at Canterbury for me, and at The Valley before I got him, so to get a stand-alone meeting on a tight track, during the off-season, it was a perfect set-up to roll the dice and have a crack at a Saturday race with him again.” No Drama did all of the hard work behind tearaway leader Mogo Magic (Duporth), sitting in second place throughout and leading the chasers into the straight. Jockey Josh Parr set his sights on the front-runner and No Drama began to gain ground, finishing over the top of Mogo Magic late in the piece to win by half a length. “He loves tight, turning tracks, which is strange for a big horse,” Parr said. “They had him primed today and it was a good effort.” Dale was delighted with the six-year-old’s performance, which came in his first raceday start since August 6. “It was a good result,” he said. “He has been a horse that is a genuine, free-rolling, on speed and tough horse.” No Drama was bred by White Robe Lodge’s Brian and Lorraine Anderton and is the sixth winner from just over a dozen starters in Australia this season from the stud’s former headline stallion Ghibellines, whose untimely death was announced on Boxing Day. No Drama is a full-brother to Live Drama (NZ) (Ghibellines), the winner of nine races including the Gr.3 South Island Thoroughbred Breeders’ Stakes (1600m) and Listed Great Easter Stakes (1400m). Their dam is the unraced Pure Theatre mare Sheeza Drama. Live Drama’s trainer Lance Robinson saddled No Drama for a debut win at Riccarton as a two-year-old in January of 2022 before he was sold across the Tasman. View the full article
